Abstract
A composite system includes an image-inputting apparatus and an image-outputting apparatus. The image-inputting apparatus includes a receiving section and first decision section. The receiving section receives an identification. The first decision section compares the identification with identifications that have been registered previously in the image-inputting apparatus, thereby determining whether the identification should be permitted to use the image-inputting apparatus. The identification is transmitted to the image outputting apparatus. The image outputting apparatus includes a second decision section. The second decision section compares the identification with identifications that have been registered previously in the image outputting apparatus, thereby determining whether the identification should be permitted to use the image-outputting apparatus. A replay indicative of the second determination is transmitted to the image-inputting apparatus. The image is outputted to the image-outputting apparatus in accordance with the determination made by said first decision section and the reply.
